Frequently Asked Questions

What every foreign buyer needs to know

Can Americans and Canadians legally buy property in Mexico?

Yes. Foreigners can own real estate anywhere in Mexico. In the restricted coastal zone — which includes the entire Riviera Maya — foreign buyers hold title through a fideicomiso, a bank trust that grants the same rights of use, sale, and inheritance as direct ownership. It's a secure, well-regulated process used by thousands of international buyers every year.

What is a fideicomiso and how does it work?

A fideicomiso is a Mexican bank trust that holds legal title to coastal property on behalf of a foreign buyer. The bank is the trustee, but the buyer retains full rights to use, rent, sell, renovate, and pass the property to heirs. It's renewed every 50 years and is the standard, legally established path for foreign ownership in the Riviera Maya.

Is it safe to invest in Riviera Maya real estate as a foreigner?

Yes, when the process is handled correctly. Working with an independent buyer's advisor who verifies title, developer track record, and trust documentation significantly reduces risk. The Riviera Maya market has a well-established legal framework for foreign investment, with strong historical demand from U.S. and Canadian buyers.
